I read an article that says in order to allow remote MySQL access you need to update these RPM's. I have no idea how to access the internet from with the Mitel server or go about getting these updates.
I know where to find them on the internet and how to install them but I dont know how to get them on the SME box. Is there a text based browser within SME? or do I have to run it from the CDRom?
I am trying to access MySQL on the SME box from a remote computer. I have setup a user and given him all permissions on the DB. Everytime I try to connect I am getting a “Error No. 2013 Lost connection to MySQL server during query”. I have tried SQLyog with no luck.
Thanks alot people.

Where are many options:
lynx is a text browser
lynx -d http://url.to.your.file/filename.rpm
wget downloader
wget http://url.to.your.file/filename.rpm
ftp
rpm download and install directly from the web
rpm -Uhv http://url.to.your.file/filename1.rpm http://url.to.your.file/filename2.rpm
mc filemanager with builtin ftp client
and finaly you can download files to your workstation and copy via network to server, then login to shell on the server and install.
I am sure I've missed a few more way of transfering files (scp etc..), but you probably got enough ways to try.

I remember reading that it was a very bad idea to upgrade the SME libc (it could break a lot) but I might be wrong.

Generally you are right, but in this case its fixes the bug with MySQL network connection and doesn't break anything else. Make sure the glibc packages are the same version for RH7.3 and just latest minor revision build.
